DataScan: An extensible program for image analysis in Java

Abstract
The ability to analyze the topography of two-dimensional images is essential for many applications in the physical, chemical, and biological sciences. We describe a computer program to graphically display and perform numerical operations on large two-dimensional arrays of double-precision numbers. It contains an intuitive graphical user interface, and it includes a suite of useful image analysis and data reduction features. The program has been implemented in Java, a recent programming langua...

Title of program: DataScan
Catalogue Id: ADOB_v1_0

Nature of problem
DataScan provides a graphical user interface for performing image analysis tasks and mathematical/logical operations on large (typically 500 x 500 or 1000 x 1000) arrays of double precision numbers. It includes basic image analysis tasks, sequential processing of hundreds images, plus suites of routines useful for data reduction in X-ray/neutron diffraction and scanning probe microscopy. New routines may be easily included by the user.
